Abstract
An interface arrangement is connected between a scanning head for electro-optically reading bar code symbols and a host device having a host processor operative for processing signals with a predetermined data exchange format. The interface arrangement includes a housing; a first connector on the housing for direct connection to the host device; a second connector on the housing for direct connection to a head cable connected to the scanning head; and a conversion circuit within the housing for converting decoded signals generated in the head into data signals having a format compatible with the predetermined data exchange format of the host processor.
